galvanized steel sandwich panel

Sandwich panels can be used in high humidity environments. Sandwich panels are usually constructed of a double-layer steel plate and a layer of core material, which can achieve a good moisture-proof effect by selecting a core material and a steel plate with moisture-proof performance, and by the correct sealing installation method. High humidity environments (such as coastal buildings, food factories, cold storage) need to prevent moisture penetration and corrosion. The steel plate serves as the outer defense line. Galvanized/aluminum zinc coated steel plates (with PVDF or polyester coating, salt spray resistance, rust resistance) are preferred, avoid un-coated steel plates or ordinary plywood (easy to rust, Water-absorbent layer); the core material needs to avoid porous water-absorbent types (such as ordinary EPS foam, untreated rock wool), choose closed-cell or hydrophobic models ——polyurethane (PU, closed-cell rate exceeds 90%, less water absorption), extruded polystyrene (XPS, high density, moisture-proof), this type of core material can prevent moisture from intruding and losing heat preservation or mold, and breeding bacteria.    At the same time, when the sandwich panel is installed, the joints and screw holes of the sandwich panel need to be sealed with weather-resistant sealant (such as silicone glue, butyl tape) to prevent moisture from penetrating through the gaps; 50-100mm ventilation gap can be reserved for enclosed spaces (such as walls) to reduce internal condensation water; stainless steel screws or galvanized screws are selected, and waterproof gaskets are used avoid formation after rusting “tidal channels”. Meanwhile, check the panel coating regularly for breakage, sealant cracking, etc. If small defects are found, repair them promptly to prevent the vulnerability from expanding.   Currently sandwich panels are widely used in various high humidity environments, such as food/aquatic processing plants, cold storage/cold chain warehouses, factory buildings in rainy areas in the south, and underground space/civil air defense engineering with their excellent moisture-proof and impermeable properties, high-quality thermal insulation/insulation, corrosion resistance, and the ability to be installed quickly.
